Richard's Auto Services

My car had been dealt with recently by these guys. Sorted out what I needed doing with no bother. Great service great turn around, Great job! Thank you *****

Our car showed a fault on the day we moved house. We received prompt, friendly and successful service from Richard's autos. Thank you.

I'm very impressed with Richard and his team.Very pleasant interactions with everyone.Competitively priced, excellent service knowledge and don't rip you off or do unnecessary work , unlike some of the chain garages

Richard's is a place where you can go with complete confidence that they won't rip you off. I have had my 6-cyl Audi A6 and my 3.0 V6 Jaguar HF serviced here for years. Never felt anything but full satisfaction. I know a fair bit about cars, but they always tell me, without pushing, if there is something I haven't noticed.Nice guys too!

I went for a mot at this garage over a week ago now my car failed on few bulbs and shocks and parking brake so i asked for a quote and it was getting into the 1000s so i thought ill look somewhere else lucky i did as my hand break only needed redoing and my shocked had nothings wrong with them took it for the next mot and passed. With the same shocks what needed doing" just thought i could scam me"

Had my car serviced by these guys. Very happy with the service provided. Will be using them again for sure.

First time visitor to area, passing by with boat. Everything clearly explained and carried out on a MOT fail. Would be happy to make my permanent garage if I lived in the area.

When I booked in my Motorhome for a repair and MOT my first impression of Richard was of a diligent and experienced business owner. As a business owner I understand that there are times when your problems impact on your customers and handling them is opportunity to impress or upset. After a delay in receiving a written quotation, further delays in doing the job, delays in letting me know about progress. I asked if he was prepared to give a small discount in recognition of the delays and not insignificant costs having been without my vehicle for the extended time. I was told in no uncertain terms: No

Competent mechanic. Good and polite back office functions / receptionists. Mechanic needs to work on his interpersonal skills. Noteworthy that this is reflected in some of the other reviews.I note the reply written below. This is odd as it does not relate to my vehicle and I did not request the fitting of any of my own parts. I simply had my brakes repaired which the garage supplied. The reply rather insinuates that I, the customer, made unreasonable requests. This is not the case. I simply dropped a vehicle off and had it repaired. The comments relating to the interpersonal skills of the garage owner stand and are perhaps even more relevant my having noted and addressed this reply.The reply from the owner indicates that “own part fitting” was requested. This is wholly inaccurate.This reply to this review raises honesty and integrity issues. It is noteworthy that the replies to other reviews raise similar issues.The conclusion must be therefore that the owner intimates falsehoods about owners requesting “own part fitting” if faced with a critical review.I have therefore reduced this review from 3 star to 1 star to reflect the honesty and integrity issue.
